At the end of the XVIII century Empress Catherine II issued a decree to form the Ufa Mohammedan Spiritual Assembly of the Law, headed by the Mufti. Since then, Ufa became the center of Muslim Russia. In 1998 one of the most unusual and beautiful mosques, Lala-Tulip was built in Ufa. Today we'll see it inside and outside, talk about this cultural and religious center, and see views from one of minarets.

The appearance of the mosque is rather unusual. It is modern and at the same time its purpose is clearly understood.
